No Ordinary Home

Home Normal is a remarkable label curated by a remarkable man. Ian Hawgood’s contribution to the minimal music scene over the past decade is hard to overstate. When invited to compile a mix to celebrate the label’s 10th anniversary I took it as a rare opportunity to submerge myself in this deep and varied catalogue. What I present here, upon resurfacing, is naturally far from a complete overview, better thought of as a few personal highlights from a significant assembly of artists and aesthetics that have collectively re-shaped our understanding of what minimal music can be.
